[quote=Anonymous]I don’t know why there’s so much talk of immigrants in this thread. Indian-Americans are the highest earning ethnic group for a reason: it’s really hard to immigrate here legally (not seek asylum, which is a small minority of immigrants anyway) unless you have a higher degree and some wealth already. So of course the kids of immigrants here are going to tend to be better off. There’s a higher likelihood that they were born to intelligent, well-educated people than there is for an American born to an American by birth. Immigrants aren’t the population to consider when evaluating what the US offers to average person. One thing I think this board forgets is that only a third of American adults have a college degree, and that’s a lot higher than it was thirty years ago. If you were born to Americans with a degree, you’re already well ahead of the average American.[/quote]
